What is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder?

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, also known as PTSD, is a serious and debilitating disorder that affects individuals who have seen or experienced a traumatic, life-threatening event. Some events that fall into this category are death, car accidents, domestic violence, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, rape and military combat. Symptoms of PTSD may include nightmares, flashbacks, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, avoidance, insomnia and tinnitus.

Is There A Correlation Between PTSD and Tinnitus?

There have been studies linking PTSD and tinnitus, but one in particular really investigated into the connection. Marc Fagelson, Ph.D., a professor of audiology at East Tennessee State University, became intrigued when results came back that his patients suffering from tinnitus assessed themselves as being more distressed from it than other patients. This is when Fagelson came to determine that all of the patients shared something unique known as PTSD.

“The first inkling I had that there might be some kind of relation came from clinical experience observing the patients I saw in the VA clinic. The ones who had PTSD almost invariably were more bothered by their tinnitus than the patients who didn't.” – Marc Fagelson, Ph.D.

In another study involving 300 veterans over a course of four years from the American Journal of Audiology, it was found that “34% of patients initially enrolled at the VAMC tinnitus clinic also carried a diagnosis of PTSD.” To add to that, anxiety from PTSD was discovered to make the tinnitus more severe.
